Major retailers like Lowes, Costco, HomeGoods, Sam’s Club and Home Depot have been quick to roll out Halloween decorations in recent years, they found. Axes.

But it’s the tip of the iceberg, as once back-to-school items are sold out, many more Halloween products will be available starting in late August, he added.

However, not all Americans are thrilled with the decorations on offer.

A Sam’s Club Shopper Criticized the Retailer Halloween musical skeletonswhich are sold in pairs.

The pair “interact with passersby, playing catchy and haunting songs together,” according to the network’s upbeat description.

The buyer disagreed, complaining in her brutal review: “Buy this if you hate your neighbors.”

She said her neighbors across the street bought them last year for Halloween, “and it’s driving me crazy.”

The Skeletons ($159.96) play just one song with a trumpet and saxophone duet – Minnie the Moocher.

“They never stop playing the same little jazz piece. It’s constant. Now I listen to it when I sleep,” she added.

“I can’t concentrate on anything anymore because they just won’t stop. My life is falling apart because of these stupid things.

I make $12,000 every October from my creative jack-o’-lantern work – they are easy to make with minimal costs

“I thought it wouldn’t be so bad at first. I thought, ‘yeah, it sucks, but I can handle it until Halloween is over.’ But now it’s Christmas.

“They left them standing and put Christmas hats on them. It’s just the worst and there’s no end in sight. Someone send help. I can’t take it anymore.”

But others praised the “fun” skeletons, who play “Louisiana-style jazz.”

KTLA-5 News reported last Tuesday that some Halloween fans love filling their yards with giant inflatables and life-size scary figures.

The station alluded to Skelly, the very tall Home Depot skeleton that went viral.

For those who want an imposing – and scary – figure outside their door, there are alternatives to Skelly.

Sam’s Club is now offering members a 10-foot height pre-lit skeleton arch ($299.96) “with piercing red LED eyes searching for new souls to harvest.”

Its motion-activated sensor “comes to life when visitors approach.”

With room for trick-or-treaters to go through the arch, “Skelly has competition this year, folks,” KTLA added.

There is also a lot of interest in how much money will be made from Halloween items in 2024.

O National Retail Foundation (NRF) predicted that in the United States Halloween spending reached a record $12.2 billion last year.

Its annual survey, conducted by Prosper Insights, found that shoppers planned to spend a record $108.24 each.

A fortnight ago, Home Depot leaked a confidential email detailing certain Halloween products that arrived on the store’s website this month.

The company even redacted the names of the mystery products – and signed the email “Stay Scary.”

A Sam’s Club member complained about being “hounded for membership fees” after canceling his decades-long membership.

And a Walmart customer was furious after poor customer service at self-checkout.
